Figure 1

(a) Schematic diagram of backward Stimulated Raman Scattering (SRS), backward Stimulated Brillouin Scattering (SBS) and Two Plasmon Decay (TPD), where the arrows represent the wavevectors of laser light (EMW\(_0\)), scattered light (EMW\(_1\)), electron plasma waves (EPW, EPW\(_{1,2}\)) and ionic acoustic wave (IAW). (b) Scheme of the experimental setup. The acronyms BSC and MS1, MS2 and MS3 indicate the Bremsstrahlung cannon spectrometer and the three electron magnetic spectrometers. (c) Target multilayer structure, where the ablator can be Parylene-N coated by 40 nm aluminium, carbon, aluminium, titanium or nickel.
